Motherhood, by Ryszard Wierzbicki

The photo was taken in August 2014 during my trip to Cambodia. This particular picture was made in Siem Reap rural area presenting motherhood, where mother and her son who was crying for some reasons. Fortunately I succeeded to attract his attention with my camera lens and stop him crying. This situation caused opportunity to make few photos.
